Traffic Girls of Pyongyang, North Korea

So I am thoroughly fascinated with the unknown and mysterious....Bermuda triangle, paranormal activities, Bigfoot, Area 51, urban abandonments, etc.....that includes North Korea. The recent events in North Korea renewed my curiosity about this "hermit nation." I really enjoy the blog An American in North Korea that sheds a bit of light on this mysterious place. One thing North Korea is known for is their "Traffic Girls." Instead of electric powered traffic lights, they use human powered traffic girls. Above are some sketches of these girls in action from photos taken of real live Pyongyang Traffic Girls. Maybe I will get around to colorizing them.
